Everyone around the globe is giving a major side-eye to this romance!
Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco finally made a public appearance together after keeping their relationship under wraps for a while.
They don’t hold back when it comes to showing their affection, but at the New York Knicks game, their display was more lovey-dovey than intimate, with just a cheek kiss, HeTexted.com reports.
However, the internet has been relentless in its criticism of this romance, especially now that they’re labeling Selena and Benny as “close friends.” Talk about brutal!
Selena Gomez has definitely faced her fair share of criticism in her relationship, but hey, who hasn’t?
Oh, it’s just a tad painful to hear others refer to your romance as their “close friend” when all they’ve done for months is blabber on about this lovey-dovey relationship. Love is definitely involved, huh? Well, isn’t that just peachy?
They’ve been “more than close friends” for about a year, but there was a time when they were simply that, so my question is why are we bringing up the past when their present is filled with happiness and love?

Why fans do not believe in Selena and Benny’s romance
Love is a tricky game, and some of the biggest names out there have fallen for its tricks.
Selena Gomez’s fans are ride-or-die, but her bond with them can get messy. Dealing with fame is no walk in the park, especially when you started as a child star.
And these loyal fans of her have one problem, Benny Blanco.
Blanco’s getting all the heat just because of some past connection with Gomez’s ex, Justin Bieber. Can’t people find something better to gossip about?
That is what on the surface all this hate seems to be about but if we dive deeper it has to do with something else, something we call judging.
Based on his appearance and personality which many have seen through videos and photos posted on social media.
What everyone is doing is prejudice nothing else! Don’t you dare judge someone’s personality based on their looks!
That’s like using a broken compass to navigate through life. Instead, pay attention to how they speak, how their eyes dance, and how they respond to others.
Because let me tell you, it’s their personality that will make hearts skip a beat, not their appearance.
Looks, his dating profile on this app which was from months ago, Beny’s past relationship with Justin (Blaco allegedly shaded Hailey Bieber online after her phone case for her beauty brand dropped), labeling him as weird and jinxing their break up is what everyone has been doing wrong.
More reasons people hate this relationship
Blanco has been caught up in a whirlwind of peculiar online shenanigans throughout the years. As a result, fans have struggled to wrap their minds around the idea of him being Gomez’s beau.
But does the couple care about all this, the short answer would be they do not!!
According to the fans, Selena is winning nothing in this relationship except for the fact that she is ruining the reputation she has built over the years by dating this man!
People here are even questioning Benny’s sincerity calling him insincere and pointing out that he is using his girlfriend to boost his career.
Blanco is being called a problematic guy and that one video where he mocks Charlie Puth is doing the rounds.
Sel and Ben
Oh and those sexist comments are also being pointed out, the one he made about Bjork from the band Iceland.
Selena, she’s taken her sweet time to heal and grow. No comment can shake her now, she’s unbreakable.
This woman has transformed into something extraordinary. If she’s happy, who cares about the nosy peeps? Even if they parade their lives for all to see, it’s their call.
Love is in the air for her, and she couldn’t give a hoot about Benny’s past. They’ve made amends and they’re living their best lives together.
